Determining the layout is always part of the project that I tend to have a lot of fun with. In this case, when coming up with the shape and size of my zine, I wanted to pay careful attention to how I could draw relation to the dice box that I shared in my first post. The intent here is to play on the square form of the initial shape, but when it is open, it turns into an elongated rectangle. The dimensions of the zine are 8 x 9 inches when closed, and 8 x 18 when open.
The extra inch here will be used for binding, though I am also playing with the idea of making the zine 8 x 10, just for extra emphasis on the length.
The content is, as always, subject to change! But so far, this is the basic order of what I would like the zine to cover.
- What is Critical Role Productions.
- What is the purpose / direction of this zine.
- What is D&D.
- The roles of the players and the roles of the dungeon master.
- The rolls of the dice. What does each dice mean? Why is it used?
- The rules of the game.
- Game and player etiquette!
- Creating your character and how to set up the sheets.
- Not pictured; resources for learning.
